2019 BURNING OF THE BARREL

June 29, 2019 @ 3:00 pm - 10:00 pm

The Burning is a must do evening as part of the Hunter Valley Wine & Food Festival in 2019 and has been featured as one of the TOP 50 Worldwide Wine Experiences you must try with Gourmet Traveller Wine. What started as a small evening with our Members is now a “Bucket List” occasion for many.

Each year we have something to live up to and last years event was just about perfect so we feel we are right on the money. Andy from the The Cellar Restaurant will be on the pans again dishing up an awesome ​fireside menu for you to enjoy, the Hungerford Meat Co. from Branxton will be stocking the charcoal BBQ, we’ll have some cracking wines on show and Newcastle’s ​Grainfed Brewery will be pouring a couple of tasty craft beers for the first time. The Burning Stage will be stocked with fantastic local musicians while the lunatics at KaBoom Fireworks have been planning something new. The Marshmallow Hut will be on again with treats, coffees and hot chocolates and from the moment you arrive, the guys at ​Hunter Belle will be pumping out the cheese boards.
